[Antennas] On The Glass Antennas

[Doug Weaver]

Is any one out there using a on the glass antenna on the side window of a
2002 Ford Explorer?  While looking through HRO catalog I found a 2M/440
glass mounted antenna made by ATOC Technologies. In the product description
it states (Note: Some newer automobiles are equipped with "passavated glass"
which does not permit on-glass antennas to work properly)  The owners manual
says nothing and a 20 minute phone call to Ford also comes up with nothing.
I also tried an e-mail to the antenna manufacturer and got no response.
This is the first time I've heard of this issue.
